How much paid holiday should employees be entitles too?
Introduction
If you asked most people with a regular job if they wanted more paid holiday, the answer would probably be YES! Naturally everyone would love to have more holiday, but when employees are on holiday the company still has to pay them even though they are not working. Taking everything into account most people would consider 20-30 days as acceptable, but maybe there are benefits both to the employer and employee to have more paid holiday?
